[quote=Anonymous]Bethesda and across the river just west is sort of the white Meca and Silver Spring and it's satellite DC areas is basically the Black Meca for the norther DC area.  People of color are very protective of Silver Spring because it is where many minorities aspire to move after getting priced out of DC or in search of schools but unwilling to settle in PG. The AAs move to the two DC neighborhoods that border SS if they have money and silver spring if the are professional and PG or PW for just about everybody else.  White People move to Bethesda/N Arlington because most minorities can't afford to live there and they get to mostly live void of poor people problems.

African American are defensive about it because it is as complete of a package nice "diverse" area as one gets in the DC area even though most of the nicest neighborhoods on the MD are mostly still white.  Whites are defensive because people in downtown Silver Spring don't have to pay the "no black people tax" and get 90% as much neighborhood for 50-60% money so they try to act like the disparity is greater than it is to make them selves feel better.
